WASHINGTON, DC: An unearthed 1996 video shows then-Representative Nancy Pelosi passionately demanding the US push back on China's lopsided tariffs - sounding eerily like Donald Trump decades before his presidency made it a headline issue.

Never mind that she’s on video tape saying she agrees with Trump’s current policy. It doesn’t count because she doesn’t remember saying it. That’s her story and she’s sticking to it.
I’d post this on every site that mentions tariffs. It’s important....And send it to Schumer...and hope a few thousand do the same.
My theory: Look at Pelosi’s early record: There is NOTHING she did in office that should have elevated her to Speaker of the House, EXCEPT...Her husband has a Little Black Book on virtually every member of the House and Senate, secured by his underworld connections. Get out of line with Pelosi, and the contents about you in the LBB goes public.
You have the right to remain silent, Nancy
And The Stupid Party should be playing this video it at the start of each Congressional session. But we won’t, because The Stupid Party has to keep up it reputation as being Stupid using flip charts and crayons as graphics.

What does this author think she is now?
